For now, come with me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t care about his origins, not showing the slightest inclination to back off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though it seemed like she was humoring his mad talk, Fu Qian was well aware that her posture indicated a complete disregard for his identity; she was intent on seeing him dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This peculiar attitude, why did it feel like he had been stripped of his human rights?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that very moment, without even looking, he knew that the trench-coated demigod was also advancing with determined steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shaking his head in resignation, Fu Qian didn’t rush to act but turned his attention elsewhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the surface of the black and red cloak donned by the baby-faced female demigod, there were several extremely fine, winding traces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their orange-yellow hue was noticeably brighter compared to the rest, giving the cloak an even more luxurious appearance at first glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only issue was that these markings extended all the way to her hand, subtly crossing dimensions without a sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Containment achieved: Extinguish the Flame]Just as Fu Qian noticed this detail, a task-related prompt appeared, the content being quite succinct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Extinguish the Flame?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could this thing actually be some form of fire?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian’s face remained impassive, but his mind recalled the illusory scene he had seen in the warehouse when the mission began: that warm, orange-yellow glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The item’s name was even “Nursery,” which indeed easily conjured up images of fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Strands of information raced through Fu Qian’s mind, and at that moment, the distance between the two Demigods had closed to just twenty meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In such a predicament, Fu Qian’s expression suddenly became serious, as if he had realized something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Outsiders?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice brimmed with caution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The footsteps of the woman with the babyface halted instantly, and the attack she had been ready to unleash was also restrained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That actually worked!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian praised himself internally, maintaining his impassive exterior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason he had suddenly called out like that was that he remembered the last sentence of the mission Introduction—when acting here, it’s best to avoid standing out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, the advice seemed somewhat inscrutable, but with no risk involved, giving it a try didn’t cost anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Demigods before him, though seemingly unremarkable in appearance, had a demeanor towards him that was indeed a bit odd—like greedy adventurers intruding into an instance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it was also possible that the actual situation was the exact opposite—that he, in fact, was the outsider, and that they had dispatched a cleaner after discovering him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But regardless of the scenario, shouting out like that was definitely harmless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Disguised quite well, but unfortunately—”Fu Qian interrupted before the others could express their opinion, snorting coldly and using the grand law of leaving sentences half-finished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How did you figure it out?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, the woman with the babyface’s expression grew utterly somber as she fixed her gaze on Fu Qian and pressed him coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How did I figure it out, hahaha…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian seemed to have heard something amusing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m sorry, but I didn’t figure it out—”As he spoke, he moved two steps to the side with incredible speed, avoiding a pair of massive fists that swung down from behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He barely evaded the attack; with a dull impact, the assailant’s fists pounded a crater into the stone pavement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crater itself was no larger than the size of a head, but the spiderweb of cracks that extended outward was startling, suggesting it wouldn’t have been pleasant to be on the receiving end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too bad, the old trick of feigning sleep was child’s play to me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You didn’t figure it out?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although it was a simple maneuver, the woman with the babyface could clearly see how formidable Fu Qian was. She immediately made a gesture to calm her burly teammate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is he truly an outsider?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t be nervous. First, there’s no need to see, and secondly, killing me would serve no purpose.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian’s laugh was as spiteful as could be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In fact, everyone in this city has been eagerly awaiting your arrival.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You knew we were coming? I must say, you’ve really surprised me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman with the babyface’s expression was as still as water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But you’re wrong about one thing—killing you… does have meaning.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, these people really did come here to hunt and collect resources?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once again confirming his speculation, Fu Qian pondered for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the two who had issued their threats stood still, making no move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clip-clop!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the midst of this quiet atmosphere, there was, unexpectedly, the sound of horse hooves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t the horse waking up to continue work; the sound originated from behind the woman with the babyface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the not-too-thick mist, a carriage with a design similar to his own means of transportation approached steadily, only stopping when it reached them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An ambush, as expected?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the Coachman on the seat, a gray-haired elder with piercing red eyes and a bushy beard, Fu Qian heaved a long sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was even a Divine Envoy.\u003C\u002Fp>",1248,"2026-06-03T07:50:45.983Z","2026-06-03T07:50:51.702Z",1,"novelbin.me","3edac8852f6a8fdd46e27854cb68f8b546be7e041233d9aa880f91a90cbc5361","facing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-chapter-831","facing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-chapter-829",2389,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffacing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-cover.jpg"]
